Andrea Macasaet Is, Like, a Totally Modern Queen
By “Nice neck, by the way.” During the 80-minute Broadway musical Six, this brief line—delivered to a fellow actor by 28-year-old Andrea Macasaet with what quickly becomes her character’s signature petulance—brought down the house the February evening I saw the performance. Macasaet plays Anne Boleyn, so you’ll understand the uproar. Before it opened, buzz around Six's Broadway debut was strong——thanks in part to successful runs in Chicago and on London's West End and the unprecedented popularity of the show's studio recording, which——had been streamed 100,000,000 times on Spotify and Apple Music.
